Missing stories: A common question we receive is the confusion surrounding missing stories. Once a story has received enough user reports it is automatically removed from the digg queue or homepage (depending on where the story is living at that time). The number of reports required varies depending on how many diggs the story has. This system is going to change in the near future.

If you look at the comments on the story, the ratio of Digg user objections to Digg user enthusiasm was pretty low.

So Kevin — what’s the deal here? Does majority rule, or is Digg still totalitarian?
